Looking to expand my library, but as you know these books can be expensive so I want to choose wisely. I have books from my undergrad but I’d like some updated resources.

Netter! Netter Netter Netter!

(ok, sorry about that…)

My 3 top choices I recommend at the end of any class (the “Home Anatomy Geek Kit”) are:

-Blandine Calais-Germain’s Anatomy of Movement. Very straightforward.
-Andrew Biel’s Trail Guide to the Body (spent weeks in Pilates training poking at fellow students with this book!)
-Frank Netter, Atlas of Human Anatomy. Excellent images; you can really see how things go together.

Gil Hedley’s DVDs are indeed excellent, and if you get a chance to go to anatomy lab with him, take it! It is well worth it.

One of my favorites is similar to Travel’s only across the pond. Soft Tissue Manipulation by Leon Chaitow. From what I understand Chaitow was going to mae a combined book including Travell’s work this past year.

My two favorite texts are Travell & Simon’s Myofascial Painand Dysfunction: The Trigger Point Manual.

The other textbook that I love is a classic–Grey’s Anatomy.

It’s for body workers but I find it really useful
